Blooms Garden Center • Nursery, Bistro & Gift Shop — Local services in Marion

Very expensive. 30 for 1 cinnamon roll, water, a rise and shine, and a med coffee. The rise and shine eggs, ham, potatoes came in a box which made it hard to eat. Other people got plates not sure why ours came in a box. And plastic silverware. For these prices I would expect tableware and service at the table not go to the counter and order. Probably won't go back, lots of other more reasonably priced local options in town. The owner did reach out and appologize although they made sure to clarify that I paid only 23 for the food, I left a 5 tip and the rest was tax and a fee for using a card. They also mentioned the order was rang up as to go. We were never asked, the cinnamon roll was on a plate and my husbands coffee came out in a regular mug, someone was not paying attention when we place this order. They were not that busy. In the end they did give us back 11 for the meal my husband ordered. Still...

Gorgeous space, huge with intertersting chairs and tables, but lots of wasted space for more. If it weren't for the patries, I'd give this place two stars. Otherwise, not recommended. My Dirty Chai was nearly flavorless. The beet salad was the size of a side salad for $13 and had little flavor. My friend ordered a grilled cheese that came with a bag of chips, also $13. Staff moved in slo mo even though they were in an air conditioned space rather outdoors in the heat. They watched me bus a table and nobody seemed to be in a rush to clear other dirty tables -- at noon. Another place where you're expected to tip even though you order at a counter and get to use plastic utensils and drink out of a paper cup. The garden shop is pretty with lots of overpriced...

This review is for the restaurant they have:

Hours posted were 800am - 230pm. Not busy at all, nice clean place, pleasant counter staff. Lots of table seating. Good amount of options, seem to be leaning towards the healthier, homemade.

First timers, You are going to need to look at the menu, plastic ones on the counter, not the chalk board above and behind the register. The reason I say that it's more detailed with all options, sides and has prices listed.

Breakfast items were really good, decent sized and came out hot.

I was surprised that their version of salsa for the burrito was two packets of "Frank's Red Hot". Not exactly what I was...
